[Margaret Pilkington]

Son, I was just about to say the very same thing.

It is time that the leaders of all political parties....and MP's too, realised that the electorate have become very disillusioned with the world of politics....a world where they tell us one thing but do something entirely different.....that we no longer have faith in the people who we pay to promote our interests, preferring to pursue their own agendas...line their own pockets....stab democracy in the back.
And to Graham, I am surprised that you have the chutzpah/audacity to post this.

I never thought you would lose touch with your roots and the local electorate so readily....but then, even Jesus was betrayed for 30 pieces of silver.
As MargaretR was astute enough to post....maybe our expectations were just too high.
